By not punishing Chelsea the Premier League is complicit in this corruption.
So how can anyone believe that this corruption is not endemic and just an isolated incident.

[LeeS]

So he fine isn’t even paid by Chelsea. It comes out of the fund for Ukrainian victims. This just gets better and better.

You have to be kidding.

It's conditioning us all to fine C115y a pittance & let them get on with it.  Utter bollocks.

The thing is, the Premier League are the clubs. I find it incredible that the other 19 clubs think the fine is adequate punishment.

It’s likely more that the other billionaires don’t want any limitations to what they can spend and vote against rules that might deny them that opportunity in the future.

The additional shit thing about the corrupt nature of the Chelsea punishment is if they got a 10 point penalty, and that would have been lenient, it would pretty much clear us for the CL in at worst 5th place.

Press barons never let their newspapers run stories about other press barons.
